Oh yes I agree. Some pedals would need a series of videos!
-
Oh how I wish every manufacturer could produce instruction videos as good as this.

Yep this is my situation. I alternate gear. Don't buy any more because my money has gone but I have enough to swap stuff around.

I always find it incomprehensible that folk form a loving bond with a wholly inanimate, impersonal object like, say, a car or a house, and yet here I am genuinely bereft at the passing of a loudspeaker. Strange chaps us humans. I just plugged into my hefty old 15" Trace Elliot cab and annoyed the neighbours one last time. Dreamed of owning this when I was a callow bass player with a Woolworths guitar and a head full of dreams. Now I'm at the far end of that road, grizzled, cynical, ancient beyond counting, and I can neither afford a vehicle that can carry it nor lift the damn thing. I put a solid old fashioned amp into it and cranked it beyond any level of neighborhood decency. Still sounds as amazing today as I dreamed it would way back when. It's going to a new home, for a new lease of life. I hope it will still bring joy long after I'm returned to dust. Adieu old friend, you were such a heavy ba$tard.

Looks very exciting. I like a bass synth. However, as it's nearly 300 quid I'm happy to wait.

Yep. I've ended up stripping it down and counting the old 1e+u 2e+u and seeing exactly where the notes fall. Thank you for your post because I was feeling embarrassed at my inability to just listen and play it

Learning, among others) I Shot The Sheriff for a dep gig next weekend. Timing of the bassline is not immediately obvious. Great line though.
-
Yes. Exactly as per the older version. USB midi controller like a Disaster Area one

What are you listening to right now?

I am listening to the album Inner Urge by Joe Henderson. Doing an album a week as part of my education. It's pretty cool. -

Community Fundraiser for our very own Lee650
stewblack replied to AndyTravis's topic in General Discussion
My life underwent a similar upheaval a few years back. She bought me out of the house so I had a few grand to splurge in the Basschat market place and ever since I have been living the life of an itinerant musician. I'm pretty much broke by most people's standards but I wouldn't go back for any money. Hang in there mate, life can surprise you in a good way too -

How was Your rehearsal last morning or night ?
stewblack replied to nilorius's topic in General Discussion
First gig for the reggae start up on Saturday night so we squeezed in a rehearsal last night. Sadly the drummer can't cope with the histrionics of one of the singers and has announced his intention to leave once we find a suitable replacement. This may therefore turn out to be our only outing 😞 -
Oooh, sexy

Bijou and beautiful The important bit here is my clean blender Renders all sorts of problematic pedals useful.

Kept getting lost reading You're The One That I Want whenever it was called at a Bandeoke. The timing is crucial and there are position shifts for which my sight reading skills are insufficient. So I've been learning it, and for such a silly song I have to say the bass line is really good, Great fun to play.

Yeah that is pretty crazy in fairness
-
I'm not so sure about that....

I am planning some mods. I'll report back on how they affect the sound
